Electri city as an agency to destroy the cod lin moth and other bug posts is the latest Innovation Introduced In mod ern apple orcharding In the Spokane valley, where W. M. Frost of Oppor tunity, Wash., and J. C. Lawrence, a practical grower of Spokane, last night what is declared to hav been the first demonstration' of its kind in the world. The test was made in a six-year-old orchard and more than a score of second-brood moths . and many green aphis were killed in a few moments. ' The apparatus consists of a storage battery to charge , the ' incandescent light globes, each of six candle pow- " " '- wire, coated with copper and tin al ternately, , Attracted by the bright lights in the tress, to which the globes are carried at the ends of a covered wire, the moths fly against the net ting, complete the elctrlct circuit and are instantly killed, the bodies falling .1 globe, : ' T' Frost estimates that one 'battery to an acre of trees will keep the moths under control, thus eliminating the usual spraying and saving many dol lars annually for help, equipment and fluid. V ie is now preparing to wire his orchard of 10 acres, containing 700 trees, and several neighbors, who witnessed the test, are doing likewise. It is reported that several thousand acres of bearing trees will I equip ped with exterminators by next spring.', w; - '-. r ' v V:..-; If commercial c!:ct:!c l!r-t "!r:- are extended to the orchard tracts, as I they are in manyplaces in Washing ton, Idaho, Oregon and Montana, the expense of batteries may ba saved by making direct connection. The cost of covering th globes with wire nets Is a small item and any electrician can do the work. : ' Indians Wont Land Back. ' Spokane, Aug. 26.--Richard Adams a half-breed Delaware Indian, who represented the Choctaw tribe In a similar action and secured $12,000,000 has been retained by the Nez Perce Indiana of Northern Idaho to recover $15,000,000 from the United"5 States government for lands in various parts of the Northwest taken from them by federal authorities. This ' was de cided upon at a council - continuing several days at Lapwai agency, at which arrangements were also made to securo all the available data, to ba used when the case Is presented to thet courts. : At a council to take place in a few days at Lapwai agency a committee will toe .named, by Silas Whitman, an educated Nez Perce' In dian, to assist Adams in compiling a list of the lands, claimed by the tribes men. Adams has expressed confidence in winning the case and has underta ken the work on a contingent fee of 10 per cent of the amount awarded in tbe event the Justness of the claim is established, otherwise he is not to receive a penny from the Indians for his efforts In their behalf, v ."
